Crema's Take

This Afrocentric sanctuary in Norfolk serves exclusively vegan fare that converts even the most devoted meat-eaters, with standouts like their viral vegan milkshakes and surprisingly craveable Vegan Philly cheesesteak that justify the drive. Beyond the impeccable food, the space itself radiates intentional warmth—clean, open, and genuinely cozy—while the staff treats every visit like reconnecting with friends rather than a transaction. It's the kind of hidden gem that feels like discovering something precious, where excellent coffee and creative vegan cuisine meet genuine hospitality and cultural pride.

A very clean, open and relaxing place. All food and special dishes are vegan! Their vegan milkshakes are worth the 30 minute drive!

I love how cozy and Afrocentric the vibe is. The staff is pleasant. I’m not vegan, but their Vegan Philly cheesesteak brought me back‼️ Please get the Vegan Biscoff cheesecake, ona scale from 1-10, I give it a 12!

So I recently purchased some tea ( KeWi) from this establishment. Now I'm all for supporting local businesses. BUT the BUCK stops here! Now I purchased the $31.50 bag of tea. Got home started reading the ingredients. Then BOOM!!! The damn tea expired in 2024.... Please look at the expiration dates for your products. Your items and food are already extremely over priced for the small amount. The funny part is the price on the tea is $30.00. But then you had the nerve to add an extra $1.50 for an expired item.. Shame on YOU! Update..... So I did go on KeWi ( the fabulous locally owned business) website and their teas cap prices are $22.00. Now I don't see the particular tea that I purchased listed on their current website. So you charged an over price of $9.50? Plus the local ( grocery) taxes of $2.18? It's ok.... You can keep the $33.28... But in the future check the oversight of your expired items. 🫣🙂🤗🫢🤭😊😉

Easy 10 out of 10 ! The yummiest vegan food I have EVER had ! && I'm excessively particular so that says more than a little bit. Mad flavor, beautiful space, beautiful service. Will visit every time I am in Norfolk!

This is truly one of Norfolk’s hidden gems. But not for long, I’m telling everybody I know about this fabulous place. This is vegan food at its absolute best. And if you want to see customer service and customer appreciation in action? Just drop by and grab some food. You can thank me later.
